How to Schedule Events in Dolphin 7.1

Hello and welcome! In today’s blog I’ll show you how to add events to your Dolphin 7.1 website. Before we begin, we need to install the events module. A step by step guide on installing the Dolphin 7 base modules can be found HERE.

Once we have the module installed, we can access it by clicking “Events” on the main menu bar of the site. Events in Dolphin 7.1 are added from the user side of the website and not from the admin. Once you’re on the event home page click “Create Event” in the action bar at the top of the screen.

Once your event has been added, you will see it listed on the events homepage.

Done! You can now add as many events to your site as you like. You can also allow your members to create their own events by changing the settings in admin. This area will also allow you to approve or deny any event you wish.
